Objectives:To establish a model of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of osteoclasts(OC)and explore the mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection on OC.Methods:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(peripheral blood mononuclear cells,PBMCs)were isolated from healthy volunteers.Receptor activator of nuclear factor-KB ligand(RANKL)and macrophage-colony stimulating factor(M-CSF)were used to make PBMCS into OC,and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP)staining was performed on the cells.The constructed kanamycin resistant H37Rv pMV261-GFP green fluorescent strain was resuscitated and cultured with 10％oleic albumin dextrose catalase(OADC),7H9 and kanamycin containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis special liquid medium in an incubator at 37℃ until the optical density(OD)value was about 0.5 at 600nm.The OC cells cultured alone were set as the blank control group.And OC cells were also infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis at different multiplicity of infection(MOI)for 24h,and MTT colorimetric method was used to detect cell survival rate.The MOI with the highest cell survival rate was selected as experimental MOI,and OC cells infected with H37Rv at experimental MOI were set as the experimental group.Fluorescence microscopy and Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid-fast staining were used to observe the transfection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at the experimental MOI.Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expressions of non-receptor tyrosine kinase C-src,cathepsin K(CK),carbonic anhydrase 2(CA2),Integrin-β3 and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9).Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of P-src,CK,CA2,Integrin-β3 and MMP-9 on the cell surface.Western blot(WB)was used to detect the protein expression levels of P-src,CK,CA2,Integrin-β3,and MMP-9.Results:TRAP staining showed that more than 90％of the cells were OC after 15d of culture,which could be used for experiments.The results of MTT colorimetric assay showed that the cell survival rate was the highest when the MOI was 20:1(P＜0.05).This transfection multiplicity can be used as the concentration of experimental group.Fluorescence microscopy showed that when the transfection multiplicity ratio was 20:1,the green fluorescent Mycobacterium tuberculosis entered the OC and was successfully transfected into the OC.The results of acid-fast staining after infection of OC with Mycobacterium tuberculosis showed that when the MOI was 20:1,the acid-fast Mycobacterium tuberculosis stained red entered OC and was also successfully transfected into OC.The results of qRT-PCR,cell immunohistochemistry,and WB showed that the expressions of MMP-9,CK,C-src,CA2,and Integrin-β3 in the experimental group were higher than those in the blank control group(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Mycobacterium tuberculosis can transfect OC;Compared with the blank control group,the levels of five bone destruction factors in the experimental group transfected with OC by Mycobacterium tuberculosis were increased,suggesting that bone destruction of spinal tuberculosis may be related to this,which may provide a new exploration direction for the diagnosis and treatment of bone tuberculosis diseases.

Monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease is rare in medical practice. The light and heavy chain deposition disease is characterized by deposition of monoclonal antibodies in the basement of membrane. Kidney is the most frequently involved organ. There was a male patient diagnosed as light and heavy chain deposition disease in department of Nephrology of the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University by renal biopsy. After treatment by oral prednisone, melphalan and thalidomide, the patient's proteinuria and serum creatinine decreased. The retrospective analysis of this case provides a guide for doctors to understand the light and heavy chain deposition disease. Early diagnosis and treatment could improve the prognosis.

Objective To effectively use the clinical data generated in daily operation and to realize information networking based on the existing resources of radiotherapy department. To improve quality management efficiency in radiotherapy process. Methods The radiotherapy process and required documents were analyzed. The reporting tool Microsoft Report Builder, which is based on SQL database, was applied to design the patient documents by extracting and analyzing a large number of data generated by Aria, the existing network of our radiotherapy department. PDCA Tools was used to analyze the weak links in the process. Reports with quantitative indices have been designed according to corresponding countermeasures, so as to improve quality control level of the process. Results More than one thousand patients were treated in our department since 2020. All patient documents of radiotherapy can be archived and inquired online after registration only once. 13 daily statistical reports, 5 quarters and 3 annual reports were scheduled according to practical demands. The waiting time before radiotherapy was shortened from 16.2 days to 14.8 days after operating the reporting system 3 months later. The staff could master the treatment progress of patients easily and patients who interrupted the treatment were found in time. Conclusion The reporting tools can realize patient information extraction and networked management effectively in radiotherapy process. Staff efficiency of personnel work and communication was improved. The resource allocation was optimized according to the report data in real time, improving the efficiency and quality of radiotherapy. This method is generally applicable and practical to radiotherapy department.
